Features

CellarPro Air Handler split refrigeration systems can be ducted up to a total of 100 equivalent feet (supply + return), and the evaporator and condensing units can be separated up to 100 feet. With our split configuration, the evaporator and condensing units can be located in separate locations and connected via a refrigerant line-set (sold separately) and power line (optional).

Our high-performance Air Handlers are designed to handle environments ranging from -20°F to 110°F. Exposure on the condenser side to temperatures below 40°F require our compressor heater, and below 20°F require our low ambient temperature kit. The evaporator cannot be exposed to freezing temperatures.

When NOT ducted, our evaporator and condenser require 12 inches of unobstructed space and approx. 600-700 CFM of ventilation when installed in a confined space.

Collars or grills for EXHAUST (ie Supply) are located at the front (shown at left), top or rear of the cooling system, and are interchangeable to meet your specific requirement.

Collars or grills for INTAKE (ie Return) are located at each end (left: evaporator, and right: condenser), and include professional-grade air filters to protect the unit.

CellarPro Air Handler Split systems offer a choice of 110V / 60Hz wiring and power configurations:

Two plug-in power cords for the evaporator (5.7 amps / 15 amp circuit breaker) and the condensing unit (11.2 amps / 20 amp circuit breaker). This wiring configuration can be used with either Valve Control or Electronic Control.

Two permanent power connections for the evaporator (3.6 amps / 15 amp circuit breaker) and the condensing unit (16.7 amps / 25 amp circuit breaker). This wiring configuration can be used with either Valve Control or Electronic Control.

One permanent power connection for the entire system (25 amp circuit breaker). In this configuration, the condensing unit must be wired to the evaporator, and must be used with Electronic Control.

Important Notes: For exposure to environments below 40°F, our compressor heater modification is required. For use in temperatures below 20°F, we recommend our low ambient kit.

Ducting of cold supply/return air will result in additional heat loss and loss of cooling unit efficiency.

The performance of mechanical cooling systems will be negatively impacted as ducting lengths increase because of reduced mass flow rate from increased static pressure. In the table above, we provide correction factors for each of our cooling units when front-ducted at various duct lengths, measured in equivalent feet. The correction factor should be applied when sizing our cooling systems if the cold air supply and return will be ducted to and from the wine cellar.

In addition to applying the correction factor above, you will need to add additional load to your box load calculation when ducting the cold side of the cooling unit. To calculate the additional load, please refer to our 8-inch duct load calculation and 10-inch duct load calculation tables.

(1) The static pressure from ducting the cold air supply and return will cause the cooling unit’s BTUH performance to be diminished according to the correction factors listed above. For example, CellarPro 4200VSi cooling unit, which produces 3938 BTUH at 55°F with the High Fan Speed, would produce 3741 BTUH (ie correction factor of 0.95) with total cold air supply and return ducting of 50 equivalent feet.

(2) When measuring total equivalent feet, start with the total linear feet for both the air supply and return on the COLD side. Then, add 8 feet for EVERY 90-degree turn in the ducting.

Summary

If you will be ducting the COLD air supply and return air to and from a wine cellar, the "heat loss" through the ducting must be considered when sizing the cooling unit. The table above calculates the heat loss given 1. the ambient temperature in which the ducting is located and 2. the total length of the ducting, assuming the ducting has R6 insulation and the wine cellar temperature is 55°F.

Therefore, when calculating the thermal load of your wine cellar in a front-ducted application, make sure to consider the BTUH from the table above, and add the BTUH above to the box load from our other tables.

Legend

(1) The table calculates the additional BTUH to be added to box load for the wine cellar, assuming R6 insulation on the ducting and 55°F temperature inside the cellar.

(2) Select the BTUH based on the ambient temperature in the area through which the ducting will be located.

(3) Select the BTUH based on the TOTAL linear feet of ducting (ie add the linear feet for both the supply and return air to/from the wine cellar. It is not necessary to add the linear feet, if any, from ducting the rear (ie hot air supply and return) of the cooling unit.

Remote Control Display Unit (10Ft.)

Using 18-guage low voltage wiring, you can now control your cooling unit from a more convinient location. If you need more than 10Ft of wiring don’t hesitate to call us at 888-373-6057. We can get you the length you need.

Compressor Heater

The compressor heater for cold temperatures is conveniently factory installed, and is used when exposing the unit to areas that may experience temperatures below 40°. The heater helps prevent the refridgerant from migrating into the crankcase oil causing excessive wear.

900W or 1800W Integrated Heater

When you are in an area where your cellar may be exposed to temperatures that can reach below 55°F such as an uheated basement or other cellar location, this is your best option. The factory integrated heater includes an additional thermostat that prevents overheating of your cellar.

Integrated Humidifier

Live in an area where your corks are prone to drying out? An integrated humidifier is all you need. This integrated unit can be set to provide anywhere from a 5% to 70% in 5% increments.

Fan Cycling Switch

All CellarPro wine cooling units will operate to a temperature of 40°F, but if you get colder temperatures, this factory installed switch is a must. It will allow the unit to be able to operate in tempratures up to -20°F.

Bottle Probe

Bottle probes are recommended when you want to duct your cooling unit, or the unit will be cooling bottles “around the corner”, or in an odd shaped cellar.

It includes a bottle stopper to measure the liquid temperature for a better temperature control.

Split System Line Set

Line sets are used in split systems to connect the evaporator and condensing units. These lines come in either a 1/2″ or 5/8″ ODS suction line, a 1/2″ seamless continuous insulation, and an 1/4″ ODS liquid line in a field installation package. We offer either a 25ft or 50 ft package, but they can be run up to 100 ft in length.
